Campaign Season 2010

The campaign season goes even crazier as the candidates in the local lever officially start their campaign. On the news, I just heard that there are nine (or was it seven?) people vying for the Mayoralty post in Quezon City. Nine candidates! How do you get a majority vote with so many options? I guess it’s not a shocker, we have almost as many options to choose from for the Presidential post.

I wonder who will be in celebratory mood, and gather friends and supporters to smoke victory cigars? Celebrations are almost always associated with smoking cigars right, whether branded or discount cigars. I’m just wondering when the tradition started, or where.

Anyway, back to campaigns and elections. Right now I’m hearing Sarah Geronimo sing for the VP candidate that she is endorsing. Ugh is all I can say. I wonder who it is that the Comelec says has already used up the designated airtime for political ads? It’s probably Villar although Binay’s ads has been out for some time too. Hmm…
